Yes shallow water means mostly flat water, but it has to be able to withstand some light chop. I dont think I'll be able to afford a solid hull...
The boat will have a 25-60 horse outboard motor on it and top speed will be 30-50 mph. I'm going to core the transom with 1/4-1/2 inch marine ply...
I'm building a 16 foot by 6 foot shallow water poling skiff and i need to know how thick the hull should be. I found a weight per square foot...
Hah wow thats great. But im talking a serious tunnel, that has been designed for maximum (or close to it) shallow water efficiency.
What calculations go into putting a tunnel into a small, 16 foot, outboard skiff? Can i do it? Can you tell me how to do it? Thanks.
Thanks alot!
I've heard you cant use fiberglass mat with epoxy resins. Is this true?
I've heard there is a different formula than the 2xLxW-90 for boats with flat bottoms, is this true? Or is it safe to use this one?
What is chine walking. And what are the regulations for a boat over 20ft?
Alright well heres the real question i need answered. How does the CG figure out the max HP for a boat?
Alright i've been looking at some designs for 17-20 foot flats skiffs and most of them have a low rated HP, under 90 most of the time. Why is...
